I do most things left handed, except for golf (I inherited clubs from my right-handed grandfather) and play stringed instruments (LH-strung cellos are generally Not A Thing™).

I once worked at an Apple Store doing repairs, and out of 16 people on my team there were only 5 who were right-handed. All but 2 of the lefty group either played music professionally or had a music-related degree, too. It was the weirdest thing.

I did fencing lefty, which is usually an advantage, since most are used to playing right.

When I play games on the computer I use IJKL instead of WASD and whenever people find out about it they look at me like I'm an alien

There's something very depressing about this

I say as someone with an English degree who is also left handed and doing saas bullshit for a living :(

If to live in this style is to be eccentric, it must be confessed that there is something good in eccentricity.

Most recent Presidents of the USofA are also left-handed!

I once got into a protracted argument with a coworker in Japan, who was forcing her child to be right-handed; and at some point, I printed out pictures of US Presidents signing things with their left hands and had it displayed on my desk, lol. Perhaps it was a silly argument, but I still feel like we need to protect our oppressed brethren near and far.

The guy who was replacing me there when I finished my contract turned out to also be left-handed.
